Title: Big Fellowship
Chapter: 7 (Woohoo!)
Author: doodlez
A/N: I realized that every chapter besides the first one has started out with an excuse and an apology. Well, you know what? I'm NOT making up an excuse. I'm NOT apologizing. I am simply going to announce that
I AM A LAZY, PROCRASTINATING BUM WHO NEEDS A FRIGGIN' DEADLINE SO I WILL HAVE A "LAST MINUTE" TO HOLD OFF EVERYTHING UNTIL.
There. You now know the truth. And from now on, my official deadline will be the 13th of every month (Because I was born on the 13th of May, and. and yeah), and I'll slowly shorten the deadlines until I'm flinging out Big Fellowship chapters every week. Hoowah!
In other news, the Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring 2-Disc DVD set was very satisfying. I spent five and a half hours watching the movie and all the special features. can't wait 'til the Director's Cut Edition comes out. 4 discs, a half hour of bonus footage. Nglaaa. (Wipes away drool)
Anyway! Carpe diem! Seize the day! Big Fellowship awaits!
TUESDAY (Continued)
7:30 AM
Well, pretty soon, watching Sam and Aragorn do nothing but stand and stare at each other got pretty boring, so the Fellowship scattered to separate parts of the house: Legolas/Boromir back to the kitchen to finish cooking breakfast; Merry/Gimli to the bathroom to freshen up (brushing teeth, combing hair, posing in front of the mirror, etc.); Gollum/Frodo to the living room, where Gollum continues clinging to the television and sobbing and Frodo with him, because he has no other choice; and Pippin/Gandalf decide to play ping-pong, seeing as they were already up, and needed to finish their game from yesterday.
7:05 AM
A camera in the bathroom zooms in on Gimli and Merry, who are braiding each other's hair and giggling girlishly.
7:15 AM
The Horn of Gondor sounds, calling everyone to breakfast.
Pippin/Gandalf and Gollum/Frodo are first to arrive, and look about impatiently for the rest of the cast. Sam/Aragorn stumble into the dining room, eyes wide and red.
"Sam, you look awf'l." Pippin pokes Sam with a fork. Sam nods numbly, and yawns, promptly falling asleep. His head rolls over onto Aragorn's shoulder, and stays there. Aragorn's head falls onto the top of Sam's, and the two snore contentedly.
Boromir twitches at the sight of Aragorn's head leaning on Sam's, and tries unsuccessfully to cover it up by blinking rapidly.
"Cute, in a sickening sort of way," Gandalf mumbles, speaking through a mouthful of scrambled eggs. Legolas gasps and slams his fist into Gandalf's back, sending half-chewed scrambled eggs flying across the table and into most everyone's face and food.
Frodo looks up at Legolas. "What was that for?!"
"You're supposed to wait until everyone's at the table to eat or drink!" Legolas scolds, punching the violently coughing Gandalf in the back again when he tries to wash down the eggs with a swig of orange juice.
"Egh." Sam and Aragorn slowly wake up, wiping bits of scrambled egg and orange juice off their faces. Gollum simply licks the food and drink off his face, getting many disgusted looks from the cast.
7:25 AM
Legolas frowns, glancing at the clock. "Well. That's just rude to have us waiting so long. Come, Boromir, let's get Gimli and Merry." He tugs on the rope and prances down the hall with Boromir to the bathroom, knocking impatiently on the door.
"Gimli! Merry! We called you for breakfast ten minutes ago! What are you doing in there?" When he hears no reply, he takes a few steps back, and takes a running jump at the door, which flies open. "You two are very l-" Legolas gasps, unable to finish his sentence.
Gimli blushes, looking up at Legolas. Merry turns away, face as red as Gimli's hair. "L-Legolas, I can explain. it's not what you th-"
"No! I don't want any of your silly excuses. you. you two-timer!" Legolas sobs and races down the hall, dragging a very confused-looking Boromir behind him.
The rest of the cast look up at the elf and the human, blank stares demanding an explanation.
"Gimli an' Merry shagging in the bathroom!" Boromir says quickly, before he's dragged outside into the backyard, the sliding glass door slamming shut behind them. Gimli and Merry race after Legolas and Boromir.
"Don't cry, Legolas, your mascara will run!" Gimli shouts, yanking open the glass door and disappearing outside. Gimli gently closes it before he's yanked to the side.
Pippin/Gandalf, Frodo/Gollum and Sam/Aragorn stare at the door for a few moments, turn and shrug at each other, and begin eating breakfast.
1:00 PM
Things seemed to have settled down since that morning's, er, incidents. Boromir had spent the last few hours trying to drag Legolas back into the house with the rest of the Fellowship, but he refused to budge from Gollum's tree. Gollum was starting to get rather annoyed, as he liked to have his privacy and sitting in his tree seemed the only place where he could get any.
Big Fellowship's voice crackles over the intercom. "Have we all forgotten what happens today, at approximately. right now?"
Everyone pauses, looking around in confusion. Big Fellowship laughs.
"Then I guess we'll hold it off 'till tomorrow, then!"
"Wait! Wait!" Frodo shouts, jumping up and down and pointing to the rope that attaches him to a sulking Gollum. "We get the ropes off! Get 'em off, get 'em off!" The rest of the Fellowship nod vigorously, feeling that they've already had these on for at least four chapters and that was long enough.
"Good job, Nancy Drew!" Big Fellowship laughs again. "We'll take you all by pairs into the Confession Cam room - which NONE of you have entered yet for quite a while, you know - and remove them. First up are Gimli and Merry. Please make your way to the Confession Cam Room. No pushing. Single-file."
Gimli and Merry look at each other a moment, and speed inside the room.
(A/N: Gosh. I am really sorry that took so long. Really, I'm going to try to get these up more often.. it's hard to write these sort of things. Anyway, I'll see you all in Big Fellowship, chapter 8, hopefully coming soon! Au revoir! Big Fellowship out.)
Chapter: 7 (Woohoo!)
